- Conditions
- HypertensionDiabetic Nephropathy
- Registration Number
- NCT00171574
- Lead Sponsor
- Novartis
- Brief Summary
Title: Antiproteinuric effect of valsartan, lisinopril and valsartan versus lisinopril in non-diabetic and diabetic renal disease: a randomized (3:3:1), double blind, parallel group, controlled trial, 5 months follow-up.
Objective: To evaluate the antiproteinuric effect of high doses of valsartan vs combo treatment in no-diabetic and diabetic patients.
Hypothesis: Combo treatment reduces microalbuminuria, proteinuria and the albumin/creatinin ratio more than monotherapies.
Design: Multicentric, randomized, double blind, parallel group, active controlled.
Dose / regimen Valsartan 320 vs Lisinopril 40 vs Valsartan/lisinopril 160/20
